You might remember this striking couple from their rockin Venice Beach Engagement Session. Lets just say after meeting these Canadian natives when they traveled out for their engagements I was crazy excited for their wedding. Karyn is not only insanely beautiful but she is also a very talented photographer. So I was thrilled she chose me to shoot her wedding.

Karyn and Troy are the very definition of sweetness. They are sweet to each other and they were so incredibly welcoming and sweet to Joe and myself as we shot their gorgeous and modern Palm Springs wedding. We absolutely felt like close friends at their intimate wedding.

I could go on and on about their detailed filled wedding but I am gonna break down the awesome for you in to a list.

– They traveled out in the camper from Canada (which we took around with the bridal party after the ceremony for their group photos)

– Karyn designed all the elements of the wedding herself

– They purchased sunglasses for all their guests for their sunny day (with a sign that read “Don’t be blinded by our love” <3 )

– They rented an incredible private residence that had great modern decor

– The guys got ready at The Ace in Palm Springs

– Troy got all his guys rings that are also bottle openers, super rad.

With all these fun facts and wonderful details their wedding was also featured on Style Me Pretty.

    Beatriz - beautiful wedding! may i ask what rental house in palm springs the wedding was held at?ReplyCancel

I have so many awesome couples to post and Laura and Ryan are no exception. They have such a sweet way about them and I had so much fun shooting their engagements in Agoura hills. They brought along some adorable signs for their wedding date and some favorite music quotes. I love the personal touch to their props :)

Can’t wait for their wedding next year at Robinson’s Ranch

I hope you all enjoyed the first bit of Julie and Henry’s big day!

I absolutely love how they mixed a gorgeous mansion/garden wedding at Greystone with the contemporary setting of The London in West Hollywood. It was such a great mix of styles.

To say this was an awesome wedding would be a huge understatement. Julie and Henry have style, they have class, and they know how to have a good time. You  may remember them from their Griffith Observatory Engagement session seen here.

The weekend had been slightly rainy and cloudy and we were so blessed to only have a slight bit of drizzle during the day and had cloudy skies to keep everyone cool. There was such a fun mix of details, awesome locations, and really great moments at their Greystone Mansion wedding in Beverly Hills that I had to split their post into two. With the awesome help of Uyen at Sassy Girl Weddings this event went off flawlessly. Julie and Henry opted to have a first look and also budgeted extra time for their portraits around the historic mansion which was such a great idea. I have to say Greystone may be one of my new favorite locations!  An extra ‘big ups’ to my 2nd and 3rd shooters for the day Joe and Jen, they rocked it out and did some great location scouting up and down a ton of stairs!

So please enjoy part 1 of their beautiful wedding and keep a look out for part 2 tomorrow.
